Joey Logano is the defending race winner at Bristol Motor Speedway, see what he is saying heading into the weekend.

YOU GO INTO BRISTOL AS THE DEFENDING RACE WINNER. IS THAT RACE STILL AS FUN AS IT’S ALWAYS BEEN?

“Bristol is one of the best races on the circuit. I know people have said that since they redid the track, the racing isn’t the same, but it think it’s a good as always. You can see guys race side-by-side for laps. It doesn’t help that we’ve been really good there the last few years. I feel like we can go there and win the race again. I’d love to win another Bristol race, especially the night race. It’s one of the crown jewel races on the schedule in my view. Plus, they give away one of the coolest trophies on the circuit. It’s totally old school, which I love. I’m pretty excited to get back there. I think we had a car worth winning in the spring race, just didn’t get to show it.”
